Abstract

This report summarises a workshop held in London in October 2024 that aimed to contribute to co-developing a strategy for adopting climate-resilient net zero responses to extreme heat through education and awareness-raising. The geographical focus of the workshop was the Greater London area. The workshop was part of project researching how preparations, prevention and responses to extreme heat can be designed and implemented in a way that does not further increase greenhouse gas emissions. This research has been conducted in close collaboration with the British Red Cross, to understand this issue particularly in the context of emergency responses.
